This was a result that no one had expected.
In the crowd, Lu An was quickly pulled up from the ground. On the other side, a guard immediately rushed to Prince Chu's side and pulled him up from the ground!
"Prince, are you alright?"
"Healing Celestial Master! Healing Celestial Master, why aren't you coming over?! "
The people around Prince Chu were in a mess. After Prince Chu stood up and coughed twice, he waved his hand and said in a low voice, "No need."
Then, Prince Chu raised his head and frowned as he looked at the other end of the arena.
Previously, when the two of them had punched each other in the chest, Lu An had personally told him to use the stone fist immediately after he steadied himself and then charge towards the center. He did not have any doubts, which led to the last scene. He was not injured by the last punch. In fact, their fists had only made contact. He had been sent flying because there was a force in his chest that had pushed him out.
He was not stupid. On the contrary, he was very smart. In a place like the royal family where people were eaten alive, the slightest carelessness would result in death. Therefore, compared to his peers, he knew very well who he could offend and who he could not. He could also read the minds of many people.
From the beginning to the end, Lu An had used some unknown method to control his body and put on a good show in front of countless people in the city. In the end, he had created the illusion that both of them were injured and left the arena. Obviously, the other party only had one goal, which was to prevent him from marrying Liu Lan. However, the other party did not defeat him like how he had injured the guard. Instead, he chose such a method. The other party had made it clear that he did not want to offend him. He had even given him another good story.
After today, this story would spread: A person who defeated a fifth-level Celestial Master actually fought Prince Chu to a draw. This was enough to show Prince Chu's strength. This way, even if he lost, he would not lose face. On the contrary, he would give face to the head of the royal family. As for the details, the people of Black Wolf City naturally did not dare to say and would not spread it.
Good plan.
It was really a good plan. It was so good that he did not know how to reject it.
Although heroes had a weakness for beauties, he had never been a hero. He liked beauties, and Liu Lan was a beauty. Therefore, he had to marry her. But now that things had come to this, he wouldn't go back on his word. Moreover, he could use the other party's scheme to continue acting and make the story even better.
Thus, he took a deep breath, left the crowd, and walked into the ring. At the same time, Lu An also walked into the ring in the distance. After the host glanced at the two of them, he could only announce loudly, "Both sides fell out of the ring at the same time. There is no winner!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire place went into an uproar. Although the battle was very exciting, this result was unacceptable to everyone. After all, everyone was looking forward to hugging a beauty.
After the host announced this, Prince Chu raised his hand, and the audience immediately quieted down. Prince Chu stared at Lu An for three breaths of time before he turned around and announced loudly to everyone, "Lu An is a genius. He was able to fight with me without being defeated. My Tian Lang Kingdom needs someone like him. I hereby announce that Lu An is pardoned for his disrespect!"
As soon as he said that, the crowd burst into cheers again! Everyone shouted Prince Chu's name loudly. In an instant, the crowd was in high spirits, and their support for Prince Chu became extremely high.
When Prince Chu saw this scene, he turned to look at Lu An and said lightly, "You are very smart."
Lu An was expressionless when he heard this. He only bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for sparing my life."
"Remember, Liu Lan can't be my woman, and she can't be your woman. Do you hear me?" Prince Chu said coldly.
Lu An frowned when he heard this. He stood up straight and looked at Prince Chu. He said softly, "My business is my business. It has nothing to do with anyone else."
"You!" Prince Chu gritted his teeth. However, he couldn't flare up in front of the crowd's cheers. He could only take a deep breath and say in a low voice, "Don't let me see you again in the future. Otherwise, I won't let you off!"
With that, Prince Chu turned and left, leaving Lu An standing alone in the ring.
After Prince Chu left with his guards, the people in the spectator stands immediately rushed to the ring. The members of the Blood Symbol Alliance and the Mountain River Alliance all rushed to Lu An and happily threw him into the air!
After throwing Lu An for a long time, the crowd finally put him down. Liu Zhengtang walked to Lu An and looked at Lu An with a smile. He said from the bottom of his heart, "You handled it very well."
Lu An smiled when he heard this. He said, "Thank you, Alliance Master Liu, for your praise."
"Alliance Master Liu?" Liu Zhengtang raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He looked at Lu An and said, "How about it? You left for a month. Do you want to come back to the Blood Symbol Alliance?"
"Of course," Lu An said with a smile.
"Hahaha!" Liu Zhengtang laughed loudly and said loudly, "Good. I announce that from today onwards, Lu An is officially the Vice Alliance Master of the Blood Symbol Alliance!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They looked at Liu Zhengtang in shock. However, they also thought about it. Lu An's strength was outstanding. Not only was he able to defeat the black-clothed man, but he was also able to heavily injure a Level 5 Heavenly Master. This kind of strength was terrifying!
However, Lu An was stunned and said, "But, you knew that I would leave."
"It's okay," Liu Zhengtang said with a smile. "Before you leave, you will always be."
Hearing Liu Zhengtang say this, Lu An did not refuse. At this moment, Lu An suddenly saw a figure walk out from the crowd. It was none other than Liu Lan.
Liu Lan's eyes were red. It was obvious that she had just cried. She did not say anything and only looked at Lu An quietly. Everyone who saw this scene stopped cheering and did not say anything.
Liu Lan liked Lu An. This was something that everyone in the city knew.
After Lu An defeated the guards, everyone thought that Lu An and Liu Lan would definitely be together. They did not expect this result. Especially to Liu Lan, it was too cruel. He gave her the greatest hope, but also the greatest disappointment.
"Elder Liu …" Lu An was stunned when he saw Liu Lan's sad expression. He thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Lan."
Hearing Lu An call her, Liu Lan's eyes teared up again. Her body trembled as she said, "Why …"
"I just … don't want him to marry you. I don't want anything to happen to you," Lu An looked at Liu Lan and said apologetically.
On the side, Liu Zhengtang looked at his daughter with heartache. He took a deep breath and said to the people beside him, "Elder Miss is tired. Take her back to rest."
The surrounding people were stunned and quickly said, "Yes, Alliance Leader!"
Hearing her father's words, Liu Lan actually had a lot to say to Lu An. However, she did not want to say anything. She turned around and left the crowd.
Looking at Liu Lan's back, Lu An could only take a deep breath and then exhale. He only liked one person. It was impossible for anyone else.
After staying at the scene for a while and dealing with the aftermath, Liu Zhengtang said loudly to everyone, "Let's go. It's noon now. Let's celebrate Lu An's victory!"
"Okay!" Everyone cheered loudly.

News of today's battle spread throughout the city.
Actually, there was no need for it to spread. Almost everyone in the city had gathered around the arena to watch. Even if they could not see anything from the streets, they immediately knew the final result. After today, Lu An's reputation would rise in Black Wolf City. He would be second only to the three Alliance Leaders of the Three Major Alliances.
In order to celebrate Lu An's victory, Liu Zhengtang directly booked the entire brothel. All 300 people from the Blood Symbol Alliance and 100 people from the Mountain River Alliance were drinking and chatting in the brothel to celebrate today's victory.
The chefs had also just returned from watching the battle. After knowing that the people from the Blood Symbol Alliance and the Mountain River Alliance were celebrating here, they were filled with energy to cook. The portions of each dish were even more than before. When the waiters served the dishes, they even excitedly chatted with the people from the two alliances. It was so satisfying!
There were beauties singing and dancing in the middle of dozens of tables. Everyone was eating and drinking to their heart's content. They looked like they would not leave until they were drunk. As the focus of today's event, the Vice Alliance Leader of the Blood Symbol Alliance, Lu An, sat at the front of the stage. He was at the same table as Liu Zhengtang, Fang Zhangwen, and Chen Shuangdao.
"Lu An, oh Lu An. You really made me suffer!" Fang Zhangwen looked at Lu An, shook his head, and sighed. "That day, in order to find the black-clothed man, we almost turned the entire city upside down. We never thought that he would be in our own alliance. That day, you fought against seven people alone. It really opened my eyes. I still remember every scene of the battle clearly. Let me toast you! "
Hearing this, Lu An smiled and said, "Alright."
The two clinked their cups and drank. Fang Zhangwen put down his cup and let out a long breath. He turned to Chen Shuangdao and said, "Shuangdao, you really didn't know anything about this?"
"I really didn't know. Otherwise, why would I let Lu An be an ordinary member?" Chen Shuangdao shook his head and said with some regret, "I'm starting to regret sending him to the Blood Symbol Alliance."
"Hahaha, it's too late for regrets!" Fang Zhangwen laughed and said, "Moreover, with your personality, if you knew that Lu An had such strength, I'm afraid you'd give up your position, right?"
"I'm willing to give up my position!" Chen Shuangdao waved his hand and said gloomily, "Stop talking, let's drink!"
"Haha, alright, let's drink!" Fang Zhangwen laughed.
The whole table was filled with joy. Liu Lan was also there. She was clearly much better now. She had a straightforward personality and was not someone who felt sorry for herself. She already knew that Lu An did not like her. After some time, she even recovered her smile.
However, no one knew how much of this smile was real or fake, and how much sadness was hidden in it.
After three rounds of drinks, Liu Zhengtang put down his cup and turned to Lu An and said, "Lu An, you said that you came to Black Wolf City to train, right?"
Lu An was stunned. He nodded and said, "That's right."
After hearing Lu An's answer, Liu Zhengtang smiled and raised his eyebrows. He said, "I have a good place to train. Do you want to go?"
